Lincoln attends legislature for at least part of day, but he "is reduced and emanciated in appearance and seems scarcely to possess strength enough to speak above a whisper. His case at present is truly deplorable but what prospect there may be for ultimate relief I cannot pretend to say." Carl Sandburg and Paul M. Angle, Mary Lincoln, 179.
